My mother-in-law was from the south. She said the coffee was named after a famous Nashville hotel restaurant that she and her husband went to on their first date. They both attended Vanderbilt University and drank Maxwell House until they died, admitting like my parents that it was not the same taste after the 1990's.
Master Blend. That's the term! Used to be better tasting according to my late parents. They stopped buying it in the early 1990's. The plastic container really turned my mom off. I remember growing up with the smell - from a can - of Maxwell House percolating in the morning. After my dad passed away my mom drank various ground bean combinations.
It used to be a premium brand, but that was before custom roasted beans became popular. I bought some once out of nostalgia. The brewed coffee tasted like plastic dirt. Not the stuff I remember back when I was growing up.
The coffee was named after a restaurant that supposedly served the special blend. Dumb. Dumb. And Dumber.
I agree. So stupid.

Master Blend. It's actually ok, but you gotta make it stout imo.
